Bouverie Mews

The house is situated on an old industrial site that neighbors a cemetery North of London, England. The clients are two artist that require living quarters and large studio work space. The house integrates the studio and living space in a balanced way so the one does not overwhelm the other. The second floor contains a roof garden and an apartment. The apartment is designed to be separate from the main living quarters but can be joined with the rest of the house for future needs. The house focuses its views towards the heavily wooded cemetery. The views to the cemetery are unobstructed with large floor to ceiling height windows. The house is clad in a dark finished rough wood plank and the structure is made from a dark grey concrete.
